Courtney and Jen sit down with local friend and Genz for Change Activist, Jack Petocz, who had his beginnings as a high school student known for organizing the group: "Recall FCSB" (Flagler County School Board) after school board member Janet McDonald censored him for calling out her racist, anti-semtic, and homophobic rhetoric. Later, Jack organized a protest against another school board member, Jill Woolbright, for filing a police report against a media specialist who had the book All Boys Aren't Blue by George M. Johnson in their library. This award-winning Black queer memoir was feautured in Courtney and Jen's first episode of the MILF4Books podcast.
